Microbrewery of Mont-St-Jean

Having heard that Waterloo beer restored energy and valour in those who drank it, the Duke of Wellington allowed his men to drink it to boost their strength and courage on the eve of the Battle of Waterloo. With the English victory on 18 June 1815, the legend of Waterloo was born. Waterloo today is among John Martin’s prestigious Finest Beer Selection, along with the likes of Guinness, Gordon and Timmermans. A micro-brewery has been opened at Mont-Saint-Jean Farm, which was where the Duke of Wellington set up the English hospital during the battle in 1815.

Micro-distillery of Mont-Saint-Jean Farm

A micro-distillery was set up quite recently at Mont-Saint-Jean farm. This place infused with history, character and authenticity is now rediscovering a tradition of yesteryear, by embarking on the distillation of high-quality gin and whisky. At the time, there was already a distillery on the site because it was an effective way of transforming out-of-date beer. Waterloo beer is the base component of both Waterloo gin and whisky. The only difference is that the whisky distillate is not altered in any way at all, while various spices and plants are added during the manufacturing process to enhance the flavour of the gin. The whisky won't be available till 2020.
